Check-In Post - June 20th 2025

Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


This Week's Question: We all probably have multiple WiPs, but which of yours has been hanging around longest, waiting to be finished?


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

Today we're setting up for a Midsummer ritual. Plan for supper is savory bread pudding made from pretzel bread and ham.

Happy Solstice, Midsummer, whatever your preferred term is!

That savory bread pudding sounds good.

We usually say Litha, I put Midsummer because more folks would recognize it.

The savory bread putting algorithm is here. It works super well with tandoori chicken, where you can also throw in the mess of onions and peppers that the chicken comes on top of.

Us: "... and an extra order of tandoori chicken to go after supper."

Waiter: ???

Us: "We're going to make savory bread pudding with it tomorrow."

Waiter: *salivates*

I just know some of them have run home to try that themselves. :D
